In the next month

I plan to:
1. Reconnect with my daughter.
2. Get back to being the mom I know I can be.
3. Stop eating out so much.
4. Sew: stockings, Leena's Christmas dress, pajama pants, etc.
5. Hoop.
6. Take photos, for my self, for my soul.
7. Clean house.
8. Enjoy time with my mother in law.
9. Go on a date or two with my husband.
10. Cleanse my liver. ;)
11. Set up my sewing area.
12. Paint Leena's big girl bed.
13. Decorate for Christmas and enjoy New Years!
14. Get back on track with eating right.
15. Take Leena out and about more.
16. Have the tv on very little.
17. Read.
18. Take photos on film.
19. Not cry from stress.
20. Finish my 2011 Calendar for my etsy shop.
21. Finish my "wreath" for my door.
22. Laugh.
23. Stay off of facebook.
24. Stretch.
25. Practice violin.

This is my way of saying. I am taking a "staycation" and not focusing on anything outside my own home this month. I am losing what I've worked so hard at regaining the last year and I hate myself for it. I will blog. I will answer emails. But I will not worry about pleasing everyone. I will be me and focus on what is right in front of me, my family.

Peace and Love.

Good for you mamma! balance and happiness is key. Hope all is well... Isn't list making the best?? They help so much to plan and organize thoughts and dreams/ideas. The other day I was looking through posts on your blog and all of your pictures are so beautiful! your daughter is adorable! She will LOVE looking at this blog when she gets older! I love all of your cute clothes from ppp and violet bella.... Whenever i get more money I am for sure going to get something from them... Anyways I just wanted to stop by and leave some love.

PS I just recently got into hooping and it is ADDICTING. I am in love.... I have such gnarly bruises all over my legs but its all good! Have you watched videos of lisa lottie?? Im going to write a post on it too and maybe share a video of me hooping with the daycare kids if i can figure out how to load that on here...

Peace love light happiness <3
& Happy Holidaze! :)

Just wanted to encourage you mama. You're awesome at everything you do, sometimes life gets away from us and it's nice to get back to what it's supposed to be about. TV and the computer are terrible time wasters! I hate how much time they take out of my day. Good for you. I'll be chatting with you soon!
